UNLABELLED Redox homeostasis is essential for normal function of cells and redox imbalance has been recognised as a pathogenic factor of numerous human diseases. Oxidative modifications of cysteine thiols modulate function of many proteins, mediate signalling, and fine-tune transcriptional and metabolic processes. In this study we present the SNO/SOH TMT strategy, which enables simultaneous ana...

The factors defining the vulnerability of men who have sex with men (MSM) population are multiple and follow a complex social pattern culminating to their risk for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission. Even though the vulnerability of this population has been previously reported, prevention efforts are poor, may be due to the lack of understanding of the nature of sexual behavior in ...

Epidemiologic studies can measure exposure to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) using environmental samples, biomarkers, questionnaires, or observations. These different exposure assessment approaches each have advantages and disadvantages; thus, evaluating relationships is an important consideration. In the National Children's Vanguard Study from 2009 to 2010, participants completed questionna...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Understanding medical students' motivation to select medical studies is particularly salient to inform practice and policymaking in countries-such as India-where shortage of medical personnel poses crucial and chronical challenges to healthcare systems. This study aims to develop and validate a questionnaire to assess the motivation of medical students to select medical...

Recent application of photo-ionization (PI) coupled with GC×GC-HRTOF/MS for authentic standard mix called century mix along with several groups of petrochemical samples demonstrated PI as an effective soft-ionization technique to characterize volatile mixtures particularly, hydrocarbons [1]. This soft-ionization technology was shown to enhance analyte speciation by providing both molecular ions...
